Substitution of Nb into SrVO3 is demonstrated to expand the stability domain of the cubic perovskite phase and to suppress unfavorable thermochemical expansion, while preserving sufficiently high electronic conductivity required for SOFC anode materials.

ABSTRACTGraphite intercalation compounds can be used as electrode materials in batteries owing to the high electronic conductivity of carbon layers and the easy diffusion of ions between the layers. Moreover intercalation has the beneficial effect of impeding some parasitic reactions detrimental to good electrode reversibility. After a brief review of recent proposals, emphasis is given to transition metal chlorides. It is shown that, besides the nickel chloride-graphite compound proposed two years ago as a cathode material for alkaline batteries, other metal chlorides intercalated into graphite are excellent cathode or anode materials.

An attempt is made to replace the use of IrO2 by SnO2–Sb2O5 in the intermediate layer which is necessary to avoid the growth of insulating titanium oxide on the titanium substrate for oxygen evolution γ-MnO2 type Mn1-x-yMoxSnyO2+x anodes in seawater electrolysis. The manganese–molybdenum–tin triple oxides, Mn1-x-yMoxSnyO2+x, prepared by anodic deposition on the SnO2–Sb2O5-coated titanium substrate from MnSO4, Na2MoO4 and SnCl4 solutions showed around 98.6% initial oxygen evolution efficiency at a current density of 1000 Am-2 in 0.5 M NaCl of pH 1 at room temperature. In order to increase the stability of the anodes, coating at various times to form the intermediate SnO2–Sb2O5 layer with sufficient thickness on titanium substrate, was performed. The Mn1-x-yMoxSnyO2+x electrodes deposited on the intermediate layer formed from seven times coating showed about 98% oxygen evolution efficiency after 20 h electrolysis. A small addition of Sb2O5 to the intermediate layer (that is, Sb5+/Sn4+ = 0.124 in the coating solution) seems to be more effective to replace the use of IrO2 for high electronic conductivity and activity of oxygen evolution in seawater electrolysis. The formation of the double oxides of the intermediate SnO2–Sb2O5 layer after seven times coating seemed responsible for both high conductivity and stability of the Mn1-x-yMoxSnyO2+x anodes.Keywords: CO2 recycling, oxygen evolution electrode, intermediate SnO2–Sb2O5 layer, seawater electrolysis, titanium substrate.DOI: 10.3126/jncs.v23i0.2097J.

The realization of stable inorganic perovskites is crucial to enable low-cost solution-processed photovoltaics. However, the main candidate material, CsPbI3, suffers from a spontaneous phase transition at room temperature towards a photo-inactive orthorhombic δ-phase (yellow phase). Here we used theoretical and experimental methods to study the structural and electronic features that determine the stability of the CsPbI3 perovskite. We argued that the two physical characteristics that favor the black perovskite phase at low temperatures are the strong spatial confinement in nanocrystalline structures and the level of electron doping in the material. Within this context, we discussed practical procedures for the realization of long-lasting inorganic lead halide perovskites.

In this paper, we study a new retrial queueing system with N classes of customers, where a class-i blocked customer joins orbit i. Orbit i works like a single-server queueing system with (exponential) constant retrial time (with rate [Formula: see text]) regardless of the orbit size. Such a system is motivated by multiple telecommunication applications, for instance wireless multi-access systems, and transmission control protocols. First, we present a review of some corresponding recent results related to a single-orbit retrial system. Then, using a regenerative approach, we deduce a set of necessary stability conditions for such a system. We will show that these conditions have a very clear probabilistic interpretation. We also performed a number of simulations to show that the obtained conditions delimit the stability domain with a remarkable accuracy, being in fact the (necessary and sufficient) stability criteria, at the very least for the 2-orbit M/M/1/1-type and M/Pareto/1/1-type retrial systems that we focus on.

Molecular sensor applications are used in different fields including environmental monitoring and medical diagnosis. Graphene, a single atomic layer consisting of the hexagonally arranged carbon material, is one of the most promising materials for ideal channels in field-effect transistors to be used as electronic sensing applications owing to its lightweight, mechanical robustness, high electronic conductivity and large surface-to-volume ratio. This paper provides a review of molecular adsorptions, electronic properties and quantum transport of graphene based on the first-principles density-functional study. The adsorption properties of environmentally polluting or toxic molecules and electronic transport of graphene are revealed. The possibility of detecting these molecules selectively is also discussed for designing the graphene-based sensor applications.

In this paper, both experimental and analytical flutter analyses are conducted for a typical 5-degree of freedon (5DOF) wing section carrying a flexibly mounted unbalanced engine. The wing flexibility is simulated by two torsional and longitudinal springs at the wing elastic axis. One flap is attached to the wing section by a torsion spring. Also, the engine is connected to the wing by two elastic joints. Each joint is simulated by a spring and damper unit to bring the model close to reality. Both the torsional and longitudinal motions of the engine are considered in the aeroelastic governing equations derived from the Lagrange equations. Also, Peter’s finite state model is used to simulate the aerodynamic loads on the wing. Effects of various engine parameters such as position, connection stiffness, mass, thrust and unbalanced force on the flutter of the wing are investigated. The results show that the aeroelastic stability region is limited by increasing the engine mass, pylon length, engine thrust and unbalanced force. Furthermore, increasing the damping and stiffness coefficients of the engine connection enlarges the stability domain.

The application of MnCo2O4 (MCO) decorated Ti4O7 as a carbon-free cathode for Li–O2 batteries is reported for the first time. The high performance of Ti4O7/MCO cathode is attributed to the high electronic conductivity of Ti4O7, the high electrocatalytic activity of MCO and the synergistic interaction between Ti4O7 and MCO toward ORR and OER.
